Sorry, I must admit I didn't realize that, no. At least it wasn't obvious to me. It is a neat idea and I hope you don't mind its inclusion in the voting.

 

Thanks for another win! Although this is getting kind of embarrassing, to be honest. Plus, I'm running out of ideas for new themes. Will think about it, though, and post the new thread then.

I voted @Cyfa, too, by the way. Would have loved to see your entry win this.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Is this again about your believe that people rather vote the poster than the entry? Sounds like you are making it much more complicated than it actually is. I'm pretty sure the vast majority of people voting in these polls don't really care about the people behind the art and just have a quick glance over the entries to click the one they like best. What makes you think this is some kind of popularity contest?

 

Here's the November challenge!

 

What makes you think anyone wants to stop you from doing that? Because I certainly don't.

I think this must be a misunderstanding, because I'm not really trying to reproach you or anything. It's just as I said: I was not sure what you were trying to say. And that's why I asked. I was reminded of the conversation we had a few months ago, where you basically said that you believe people are voting the member as opposed to the artwork and thought that that's what you meant.

Thanks for your clarification, though. Personally, I actually vote by the same principal more or less: I tend to assess the idea and the concept of an entry and less the particular artistic implementation of it. Of course, when you have artistic craftsmanship on top of an intriguing concept, it's even better (like with @Cyfa's entry).
